It would be great only because it's a long time coming. As a political football...it is crap.
I would prefer that politicians live or die via their convictions...for better or worse. Instead, we get stuck with Slick Willy types who have no convictions...which make them the most dangerous types of all. We don't know what ideas they'll steal then pawn off as their own............
Hitler had one truly great attribute (though as a man he was truly heinous). You always knew what he wanted. Chamberlain was a fool, and Churchill saw through the man's thinly veiled charade. Hitler was an easy read....problem is, in politics the easy stuff is overlooked for "more complex" issues. Hitler realized this, and used it to his advantage. That is why he was a political neophyte, but a military genius. Politically, he was so simple. But he used his knowledge of military maneuvering to outflank his opponents. He also used muscle to push his views...giving a clear indication of the monster he truly was.
